bapowell Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Hi all! Yes, this is my 2nd Iron Man 2 post in a few days...sorry. This is a nice book: clean, complete interior; tight staples. Small bend/tear on bottom edge and there is a finger print right there on Shell Head's knee. Thanks for looking! Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s possible that the fingerprint is just on the surface and can be cleaned. If the spine roll, blunted spine corner and waviness can be straightened out, you might see 7.5 with a chance at 8.0.

The book doesn't lie flat, it does curve up slightly at the spine. But, the front and back covers are aligned on the fore edge. When I think of spine rolls, I think of this latter condition being affected, where the spine curves up and "pulls" the back cover away from the fore edge. Am I confused about how to spot spine rolls? Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPH1964 Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Not all spine rolls are created equal. This spine roll is slight and is not as pronounced as books where the spine roll is so severe that the BC cover can be seen from the front and the pages are fanned out. In any case, the roll can be seen in the spine view photo; specifically, the upper spine corner that shows that the book does not lay flat. So, this book has a spine roll, just not a severe one.
